Just another day in the life

By the time I walked out to my car the snow had begun, when I returned from work it had ended and there was an icy crust over everything.

Today was filled with stressful deadlines and encouraging texts and email. Seems word is out that I am freelancing… I need to be careful not to overcommit but I am so grateful for the superlatives being thrown my way. I know I have made the right decision. To stand on your own takes courage.I have been subject to many attempts to stifle me in the past, I am now grateful that I am the only one who can stand in my way.

After work I went to Campbells to visit with the Watson’s and enjoy our person pizza orders. Panago knocks that one out of the park for only 7.50. It was so fun to play with Morgan and visit with everyone. Aiden really enjoyed showing us his Halloween costume. He found some great 80s clothes and plans to go as a used car salesman. He cracks me up completely as he owns the fun of it. 16 and ready to have fun. We may also have introduced him to Oban tonight. Shame he won’t be able to afford it for a long time….

I got a message from young Leyton, looking for work again, offered to shovel. I don’t think it’s a thing I will pay for but I do need help putting the bag on the mattress so he is coming over tomorrow.

I had a good time, we played some crib, and off I came home to sweep my way in. I had a cheers with Brett and Sean for my Dad’s memory and then had a sip of the stupid expensive stuff when I got home.

PS I noticed from my stats that a few are reading along from South Africa, that’s cool! Welcome aboard!
